Matters appertaining only to England should be decided by English MPs.
The previous Prime Minister promised English MPS only should vote on English only matters thereby giving England parity with the other nations in the U.K. Nothing has yet happened.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.
You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
On 22 October 2015, the House of Commons approved changes to the standing Orders (the rules of House of Commons procedure) that gave effect to the Government’s plans to introduce 'English votes for English laws' (EVEL). We're therefore not sure what you would like to change.
